Jul 15, 2019 at 11:49 comment added Sir Cornflakes @elemtilas The language detection algorithms are quite sensitive to the character sets and other superficial features of the spelling system, I doubt that trying automatic language detection on Valyrian gives really sensible results.
Jul 13, 2019 at 23:19 comment added elemtilas @curiousdannii -- Could be. Penny to a pound says WALS will say Latvian as well! Still rather opinion based. That, after all, would just be the opinion of whoever plugged data into WALS!
Jul 13, 2019 at 22:38 comment added curiousdannii @elemtilas By using tools like WALS I think a set of languages that Valyrian is closest to typologically could be identified.

Jul 13, 2019 at 1:20 comment added elemtilas I think this query is going to be far too opinion based to be anything like useful for this forum. For what it worths, a quick shufty reminds me most of Latvian. Google translate wants to translate from Latvian as well. tā kā darba ņēmēju brīva kustība ir pozitīvs sociāli ekonomiskais piemērs gan ES, menti ossēnātās, qilōni pilos lue vale tolvie ossēnātās, yn riñe dōre ōdrikātās.

Jul 11, 2019 at 8:44 comment added Christian Rau @TorstenLink What does it matter if George Martin or someone else created the language, though? This isn't a GRRM question.
Jul 11, 2019 at 6:44 comment added Simo Kivistö @TorstenLink yes I'm aware that the "language" was mostly created by David J. Peterson. I'm aware it wasn't based on any existing language. Yet it resembles some languages more than others. For example it seems to resemble much more Latin than Chinese in many aspects. Even if you completely make up a language it's bound to resemble some living languages more than others...

Jul 11, 2019 at 6:40 comment added Tymek Wojnarowski @TorstenLink yes, but he could have based these words on some language.
Jul 11, 2019 at 6:38 comment added Torsten Link George RR Martin said in an Interview, that he did NOT actually create a language but just made up the sinlge words he needed. The language was made up for the series only....
